Detailed Implementation

[0025] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figure 1-5 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0026] This utility model provides a technical solution: a lifting and rotating mechanism, including a base 1, mounting plates 2 fixed at both ends of the base 1, a cylinder 3 fixed at the middle position of the base 1, a lifting plate 4 fixed at the end of the piston rod of the cylinder 3, a steering device 5 fixed on the lifting plate 4, a motor 6 connected to the right end of the steering device 5, and a turntable 7 connected to its upper end. Figure 5As shown, the lifting and rotating mechanism is installed below the roller conveyor and fixed to it via mounting plate 2. The roller above the turntable 7 has a channel for the turntable 7 to rise and fall. Normally, the upper surface of the turntable 7 is lower than the upper surface of the roller, thus not affecting the transport of goods. When goods need to be straightened or their orientation changed, the cylinder 3 starts when the goods are transported above the turntable 7. Its piston rod extends, pushing the lifting plate 4 upwards until the turntable 7 lifts the goods above it to a certain height. Then, the cylinder 3 stops, and the motor 6 starts, causing the turntable 7 to rotate via the steering gear 5, thus rotating the goods on the turntable 7 until they are rotated to the desired position. The motor 6 then stops, and the operator or machinery can then perform the necessary operations on the straightened or repositioned goods, such as using a forklift to fork the goods into a shelf for storage. Afterwards, the cylinder 3 restarts, lowering the lifting plate 4 to its original position, ready to straighten or reposition the next item. This invention is mainly applicable to lightly loaded goods, with a designed load capacity of around 30 kg. Through the addition of a lifting and rotating mechanism, this invention is easily installed on roller conveyors. When used in conjunction with the roller conveyor, it enables automatic alignment or orientation change of goods during transport. This lifting and rotating mechanism is not only compact, space-saving, and inexpensive, but also easy to install, and can achieve 360° rotation of goods without any blind spots.

[0027] A connecting seat 8 is provided between the steering mechanism 5 and the turntable 7. The connecting seat 8 is fixed to the top surface of the steering mechanism 5. The vertical rotation rod of the steering mechanism 5 passes through the connecting seat 8 and is fixed to the bottom surface of the turntable 7. A connecting block 9 is fixed to the right side of the connecting seat 8, and the connecting block 9 is fixed to the motor 6. The steering mechanism 5 is existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here. The vertical rotation rod of the steering mechanism 5 passes through the center of the connecting seat 8 and is rotatably connected to the connecting seat 8. The setting of the connecting seat 8 provides better support for the turntable 7 and the motor 6, and makes the entire lifting and rotating mechanism more stable.

[0028] The turntable 7 includes a storage tray 10, with a rotating disk 11 connected below the storage tray 10. A bearing 12 is fixed to the rotating disk 11, and the bearing 12 is fixed inside a bearing seat 13, which is fixed to a connecting seat 8. This structure of the turntable 10 not only makes the overall structure of the turntable 7 more robust, but also makes the turntable 7 more stable during rotation.

[0029] Mounting plate 2 includes a longitudinal support plate 14 fixedly connected to base 1. A transverse support plate 15 perpendicular to the top of the longitudinal support plate 14 is fixed to its top. A reinforcing plate 16 is fixed between the longitudinal support plate 14 and the transverse support plate 15. The longitudinal support plate 14 has a first through groove 17 and a second through groove 18 from bottom to top. The transverse support plate 15 has several mounting holes 19, and mounting components 20 are installed within the mounting holes 19. The mounting components 20 can be screws or nuts, which are placed within the mounting holes 19 for later use. Figure 5 As shown, during installation, firstly, the mounting component 20 is removed. Then, the two transverse support plates 15 are aligned with the bottom surfaces of the front and rear side plates of the roller conveyor. The bottom surfaces of the front and rear side plates of the roller conveyor have holes matching the mounting component 20, such as threaded holes. The mounting hole 19 is aligned with the threaded hole. Then, the corresponding transverse support plate 15 is installed and fixed to the side plates of the roller conveyor using the mounting component 20. This completes the installation of the lifting and rotating mechanism and the roller conveyor, which is very convenient and greatly improves installation efficiency. The base 1 is in contact with the ground, so after the lifting and rotating mechanism is installed, it can provide good support for the roller conveyor, improving its stability. The reinforcing plate 16 greatly strengthens the connection between the longitudinal support plate 14 and the transverse support plate 15, thereby improving their support strength. The first through groove 17 and the second through groove 18 greatly facilitate the handling of the lifting and rotating mechanism.

[0030] Mounting hole 19 is designed as an oblong hole. This oblong design allows for adjustment when aligning the mounting hole with the hole on the side plate of the roller conveyor, facilitating installation.

[0031] The base 1 includes a base plate 21, on which a rectangular frame 22 is fixed. The cylinder 3 is fixed in the middle of the base plate 21. By setting the base 1 to this structure, not only is the weight reduced, but the storage function is also improved.

[0032] Several springs 23 connect the storage tray 10 and the rotating disk 11. Each spring 23 contains a support column 24, the bottom end of which is fixed to the top surface of the rotating disk 11. A gap exists between the top of the support column 24 and the bottom surface of the storage tray 10. This design effectively cushions the load when the storage tray 10 lifts the goods, protecting both the storage tray 10 and the rotating disk 11 and extending their lifespan. When the storage tray 10 lifts the goods, the gap between the top of the support column 24 and the bottom surface of the storage tray 10 compresses the springs 23, causing the storage tray 10 to descend. When the bottom surface of the storage tray 10 is compressed to contact the top surface of the support column 24, the support column 24 provides stable support. Therefore, the cooperation between the springs 23 and the support column 24 not only provides excellent cushioning but also ensures stable support for the goods after the cushioning effect.

[0033] A spring ball 25 is fixed to the top of the support column 24, and a gap is left between the spring ball 25 and the bottom surface of the tray 10. The setting of the spring ball 25 changes the contact between the support column 24 and the bottom surface of the tray 10 from rigid contact to flexible contact, which plays a good protective role for the tray 10 and further enhances the cushioning effect.

[0034] Working Principle: During operation, goods are conveyed via a roller conveyor. When the goods are conveyed above the turntable 7, cylinder 3 is activated, its piston rod extends, and it pushes the lifting plate 4 upward until the turntable 7 lifts the goods above it to a certain height. Then, cylinder 3 stops operating, and motor 6 starts, causing the turntable 7 to rotate via steering gear 5. This rotates the goods on the turntable 7 until they are rotated to the desired position. After that, motor 6 stops. Then, the operator or operating machinery performs the necessary operations on the aligned or repositioned goods, such as using a forklift to fork the goods into a shelf for storage. Afterward, cylinder 3 restarts, lowering the lifting plate 4 to its original position, ready to align or reposition the next goods. This utility model is mainly suitable for lightly loaded goods, with a designed load capacity of approximately 30 kg. This utility model, through the setting of the lifting and rotating mechanism, is easy to install on the roller conveyor. When used in conjunction with the roller conveyor, it realizes the function of automatically straightening or automatically changing the orientation of goods during transmission. The lifting and rotating mechanism is not only compact in structure, occupying little space, low in cost, and easy to install, but also can realize 360° rotation of goods without dead angles.
